Mount Ararat

MOUNT ARARAT

After we left from the Taurus Mountains the guide Abraham had tooken us to Mount Ararat and while we were there we also learned many intersting facts about this wonderful place. We also had fun climbing it exept that I was out of breath so we had to go back. I felt bad for spoiling the whole trip but at least we learned many other facts that we didnt know about Mount Ararat.
-We learned that Mount Ararat is a snow-capped dormant volcanic cone in Turkey.
-We also learned that it has 2 peaks. (Greater Ararat and Armenien Plateau)
-Mount Ararat is located in the Igdir Province.
-The Ararat Plain runs along the northwest to the western side.
-Mount Ararat holds great Biblical signifinces.
-For years people believed that Noah's Ark had settle on the Taurus Mountain.
-The discription in the Bible was ''Mountains of Ararat''.
We all wondered if Noah's Ark really is or was located on the Taurus Mountians. We all thought that this mountain (Mount Ararat) was AMAZING and very mysterious because nobody really knows about whatever happend to Noah's Ark.
